That's ridiculous.
I'm the Aura family's missing eldest grandson?
It's true. You are our family's eldest grandson.
Mr. Vice Chairman.
Listen carefully, Soo Ho.
You really are my nephew.
Our family's missing eldest grandson.
I'm sorry.
I should've told you sooner.
I made you suffer...
because I'm pathetic.
I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
Then that day...
you said you'd tell me about my roots...
and had me meet you at the hotel...
I wanted to introduce you...
to my father and mother.
And tell them their eldest grandson...
they hoped to see even in their dreams...
was before their very eyes.
Soo Ho.
Were you unable to come...
because of Nam Joon?
That's right.
He was trying to stop me from seeing you.
There was a scuffle which led to an accident.
When I woke up, I was in a strange hospital room.
You're late.
Why you...
How could a human being do such a thing?
Take Nam Joon and bring him to the police!
Isn't anyone there?
Don't you hear me?
But...
why did Ms. Cho suddenly team up with Nam Joon?
I saw her at the hospital...
where you were being held captive.
I don't know.
Ae Ra says...
he blackmailed her about Do Kyung's car accident...
into making him CEO,
but it's not true. There's something...
between them.
Nam Joon.
Nam Joon!
They're much more deeply involved.
I'm sure there's...
Sir. Let's go back in.
You need to rest.
Shouldn't we take him to the hospital?
He's still dizzy from...
receiving excessive sedatives.
He'll be fine if he gets enough rest.
He must be traumatized too.
Let's go and let him rest.
Okay.
I am...
the Aura family's eldest grandson?
You're my uncle,
Chairman Park is my grandfather,
and Big Madam is my grandmother?
If Soo Ho hadn't found him,
they would've kept him locked up.
My gosh.
Those people are seriously frightening.
Nam Joon is bad enough,
but how could his wife do that to her husband?
My gosh.
I know. I did doubt my suspicion.
But it's still shocking that Soo Ho is their missing grandson,
and it's shocking that there are still more shocking things left.
Soo Ho, are you okay?
I'm okay.
Soo Ho.
I'm sure it's shocking for you to find out...
who you are like this,
but let's think positively about this.
Your grandparents are great people.
You know what I mean, right?
Yes, Father.
But...
what problem did you have at work earlier?
The auditing team came to get me.
They're to tie vice chairman and me together regarding his embezzlement.
They also said I spread the lie about Aura Bio...
to inflate its stock price.
I was dismissed too.
What?
I'm sure Nam Joon is behind it all again.
He knows you're the grandson and is trying to get rid of you.
That evil jerk.
Call the chairman now.
He needs to know as soon as possible.
The person you have reached is unavailable.
Please leave a message after the tone.
Neither the chairman nor Grandmother is answering their phones.
I visit them myself.
Okay. Go ahead.
Ae Ra, what are you doing?
Are the three of you teaming up to fight me?
Ae Ra, what's wrong with you?
Why are all of you doing this, Nam Joon, Esther?
- Gosh. - Grandmother.
Mother, why are you crying?
I'm just trying to send Father away...
so that he can rest. He is getting old after all.
How many more years do you think you'll live?
Leave the stressful company matters...
to Nam Joon and me...
and enjoy life before you die.
Who are you to tell me to leave the company?
Because Aura is mine.
I'm its owner.
Ae Ra.
Why you...
How is Aura yours?
Are you high?
My father built Aura to what it is today.
If it weren't for him,
it wouldn't be what it is now.
What ridiculous nonsense is that?
Aura was almost ruined because of your father.
Do you mean how he got bribes from people to help Aura for his child?
Everyone did that back then. Why is that a problem?
But...
how could you betray my father like that?
The two of you were best friends ever since childhood.
If you hadn't testified against my father,
he wouldn't have died a wrongful death in prison.
Imagine how angry he was...
that he took his own life in prison.
What? Didn't your father...
pass away from a chronic illness?
Fine.
I've been saddened by that all my life.
However,
you are seriously mistaken about something.
Your father receiving bribes...
He used Aura to launder the money...
to use for his campaign fund.
For his personal gain.
To gain a higher position.
Do you expect me to believe that sorry excuse now?
You grew Aura this much using information my father fed you.
Then you were about to get caught,
so you dumped it all on my father to save yourself!
How dare you?
Mr. Chairman!
My father built this company with his blood.
Even if Soo Ho goes around saying he's the eldest grandson,
I won't let him have it.
Ae Ra, what's wrong with you?
Why are you kids doing this?
Why are you doing this to us?
Ae Ra, Nam Joon,
do you think I will let you do this to me?
I will destroy you both!
Come in!
Escort them to their room.
Be courteous and make them comfortable...
so they won't leave for a while.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Grandfather, go in.
Grandmother may faint at that rate.
Let's go.
You bring them their meals for the time being.
Guard them well.
Don't let them contact anyone on the outside.
What? Me?
I had no idea...
Ae Ra held such a grudge against us.
Save your tears.
If we're going to get rid of all of them, we must be strong,
both physically and mentally.
Mr. Chairman.
They knew Soo Ho was our eldest grandson...
and had been preparing for this.
Sweetie.
He's our eldest grandson...
that you've been longing to see.
Don't be soft.
You'll collapse without ever getting to hug him.
You must be strong physically and mentally.
Are you here to keep an eye on us?
No, I'm not.
She told me to serve the two of you.
And just so you know,
the phone, fax machine, cell phones, and computers don't work here.
So Mother said not to waste your energy.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know she'd go this far.
They prepared this in advance ever since they started the scam...
to make Nam Joon our grandson, in order to take the company.
Gang Chul's embezzlement matter...
is also their scheme.
Then Gang Chul...
suddenly disappearing after telling us...
he'd introduce us to someone we want to see...
Do you think...
Goodness. Gang Chul...
and our eldest grandson must be safe, right?
I'm fine.
I can't be weak.
This is just the beginning.
Is it true?
Did your father really commit suicide in prison?
The official report said he died of an illness,
but he took his own life.
The humiliation and betrayal he felt because of the chairman...
were too much for him.
Even until the moment he passed,
he worried about me.
So how could they give the company to Soo Ho just because...
he's the eldest grandson?
The company was built on my father's blood.
You, my blood, must inherit it.
Do you mean it?
Wasn't I a fill-in until No Ah...
became an adult?
No Ah is my grandson whom I must look after.
It's really just the two of us now.
The moment Gang Chul was hurt,
you realized it too, that it's just us.
I want to believe that,
even if it's a lie.
I promise you.
The tears you shed because of me and your pent-up anger,
I'll relieve you of them.
I'll compensate you.
Open the door now!
It's Soo Ho. What should I do?
He's probably here to see the chairman.
To confirm he's the grandson.
Send him away.
Me?
He won't fall for it that easily.
Just say they went to a vacation house.
Grandfather and Grandmother aren't home.
They went to a vacation house.
Don't lie.
They left this afternoon to test Nam Joon's DNA with theirs.
But what? A vacation house?
Which one?
I don't know.
They said they weren't feeling well after getting the test done,
and they said they were going to a vacation house.
Esther.
You knew I was this family's eldest grandson, didn't you?
That's why you asked Gun about that necklace.
Because you knew.
Soo Ho.
Did Ms. Cho and Nam Joon...
threaten you?
Or did you use No Ah...
to make a deal with them?
Keep this in mind.
I don't know what they offered you,
but the truth is bound to get out.
If you aren't careful,
they'll use you as a scapegoat.
No.
She said she'd make No Ah...
the successor when he grows up...
I was...
Do Ri's dad for a time being.
So I will never let him get hurt.
However, what about Nam Joon?
Does he care about Do Ri as much as I do?
I have Mother.
She will...
protect No Ah.
Don't you think something is suspicious...
between Ms. Cho and Nam Joon?
They used to be at each other's throats whenever they met.
But they suddenly became that close that quickly...
just because they both wanted to get rid of me?
What do you mean?
I'm saying...
they share a secret none of us knows about.
Don't be another victim to that secret...
at least for Do Ri's sake.
The chairman and I...
are bound to meet.
So choose wisely.
Did Soo Ho say anything...
other than asking for the chairman?
That he's this family's eldest grandson,
and that he'll meet the chairman eventually.
What about Gang Chul?
No.
I'm going to go upstairs.
It'll be a matter of time...
before Soo Ho barges in here.
We need to rush.
We need to transfer the chairman's assets into our accounts...
and find Gang Chul.
Soo Ho was right.
Those two really are being suspicious.
They used to despise each other.
How are they so close now?
Something's up. I need to find out what.
We said we won't eat!
Why are you bringing that out?
I think they're going on a hunger strike.
They won't eat.
That's why you brought it back out?
Give me that.
Father.
Are you treating me like a monkey in a zoo?
Do you think it'll be fine if you lock me in my room...
and bring us food?
Oh no! That must have been hot!
Were you burned?
I'll bring a new breakfast tray.
Ae Ra!
Do you think doing this will make me change my mind?
I regret not kicking you out although I knew...
you had nothing but greed in your heart.
It's my greatest regret.
I'm not the one who's excessively greedy, but you.
Nothing is as vile as an old man's greed.
Father, you've enjoyed everything there is to enjoy.
You've done enough.
I think it's time for you to let go.
Ae Ra. How could you speak so rudely to him?
I came this time out of courtesy,
but I won't ask twice.
What was that?
Mr. Lee.
Yes, ma'am.
Clean the room...
and don't bring in a drop of water or a grain of rice unless I say so.
They have way too much energy.
Are you trying to kill us?
Do you think you'll get away with this?
Goodness.
Mother won't last long because of her health.
Let's add you to the family registry first.
That way, we can transfer Father's assets to you.
Will you really...
give me everything?
I told you.
You're my only son, so naturally, you should own Aura.
What was that all about?
Nam Joon is her son?
No way.
How is Nam Joon...
If by chance the vice chairman does return,
he won't sit still for this.
We need to get him before he does anything.
Eliminate all possible variables before the shareholders meeting.
Soo Ho is the most powerful...
as you say,
so I'll strike him first.
I'm going to meet with the lawyer.
I'll join you as soon as I locate the vice chairman.
Mother is thorough about everything.
If he really is her son,
she would've tested him...
to confirm that he is her son.
She must have had him before she married Father.
(Test Result)
(Cho Ae Ra and Kim Nam Joon are biologically mother and child.)
"Cho Ae Ra and Kim Nam Joon are..."
"biologically mother and child."
Goodness.
Her son will come first before her grandson.
What will Do Ri and I do?
I was Do Ri's dad for a time being.
So I will never let him get hurt.
However, what about Nam Joon?
Does he care about Do Ri as much as I do?
My gosh.
Dad! Mom!
San Ha! Soo Ho!
You have to see this! Hurry!
What?
What is it?
Aura Group's chairman...
is stepping down from company management.
What? Why? He's still so healthy.
When did he say he'll retire?
At the shareholders meeting.
The date is right here.
Seul Ha, what do you mean...
the chairman is retiring?
Look at this. You too.
It's the top news in the business section.
(Chairman Park Soon Tae of Aura Group Announces Retirement)
"Chairman Park Soon Tae of Aura Group..."
"announces retirement"?
Soo Ho.
Do you think perhaps...
the chairman cut off all communication...
and went off the grid to make his decision about retiring?
No. I think...
Ms. Cho and Nam Joon are scheming something...
to claim the chairman's seat at the shareholders meeting.
They're framing the vice chairman...
of embezzlement and me of spreading lies right now.
And now, the chairman is stepping down.
Nam Joon...
must plan to take over Aura.
Even still, how could he? Aura is so big.
It isn't impossible as long as...
Ms. Cho is helping him.
But the vice chairman can't seem to wake up.
He woke up in the middle of the night.
He took something for his headache and went back to sleep.
I'm here.
Okay.
Did you find Chairman Park?
No. I had people search all their vacation houses,
but he isn't there.
Where is he?
I'll see if they say anything at the office.
Mommy's sorry.
We'll change this one time,
but we won't change it again, okay?
Okay.
Must you change his kindergarten?
No Ah...
still thinks Soo Ho is his dad.
I think it's best to switch.
I don't want to hurt him.
Okay. See you later.
Gun. Have fun with your new friends at kindergarten.
Okay.
- Let's go. - Yes, sir.
Mommy.
Yes. Just a minute.
Hi, San Ha.
There's a group of men in black suits headed your way.
I think they're going to our house to look for the vice chairman.
The vice chairman?
Okay.
Sir!
- Find him. - Yes, sir.
Who are you people?
What right do you have...
to barge into our house like this?
This is so annoying.
At least take off your shoes.
I don't know what you're looking for,
but if you don't leave right now, I'm calling the cops!
Where did you hide Park Gang Chul?
Why are you looking for him here?
Who is he?
He's Soo Ho's company's vice chairman.
I read an article that he's accused of embezzlement and on the run.
Embezzlement?
Why did someone so rich do that?
- You're right. Gosh. - He's not here.
Let's go.
He isn't in San Ha's house either?
Find Soo Ho and follow him.
He has a kid who runs his errands too.
Mother. I'm going to take Do Ri to kindergarten.
Things are hectic right now.
Why don't you have him stay at home?
The teachers called...
to ask if he's sick and when he'll be coming back.
They also visited to check on Do Ri.
It may end up interfering with what you're trying to do.
Make sure he doesn't say anything just in case.
I'll see you later.
I'll see you later, Grandma.
Hello.
Please take good care of Gun.
He must be sad about leaving his friends.
He's been down since yesterday.
Gun. See you at home.
Okay, Mommy.
No Ah!
Mommy, I'll see you after kindergarten.
Okay. Be careful and have fun.
We need to talk.
I have nothing to say.
Where did you hide the chairman and his wife?
What do you mean, hide?
They're at their vacation house.
Did you lock them up?
What?
I'm right. Where are they?
But first,
I need to see Soo Ho and get him to promise something.
Promise?
Where is he?
Darn it. I'm so angry.
We should round them up and lock them up in jail.
Honey.
Seeing how they barged in here looking for the vice chairman,
Nam Joon and Ms. Cho...
are starting to take extreme measures.
They have no desire to hide the bad things they're doing.
Gosh.
Not Chairman Park, too,
right?
Why did you drag that brat home?
Sit down.
San Ha says...
you have something to tell me.
Tell me straight up.
Chairman Park and Grandmother...
aren't at a vacation house, are they?
I checked all of their vacation houses, but they weren't there.
So don't try to lie to me...
and tell me the truth.
First, promise me something.
Promise?
This has nothing to do with me.
So keep me out of it.
What do you mean?
Bring me some ice water.
I'm still not sure...
whether I should've come here.
My throat is parched.
Esther is coming over.
She may be coming as a spy,
so you can't come out.
Fine.
I'll tell you everything.
Okay, tell me.
I won't hold you accountable for any of this.
Grandmother and Grandfather...
are locked up in the house...
They're locked in their room.
What?
They even sent away Ms. Hong,
and replaced all the workers at the house...
with people who are loyal to Mother and Nam Joon.
I'm scared to death too.
Ms. Cho and Nam Joon have been...
joined at the hip lately.
Why would she be like that with him...
who did that to her son, Do Kyung?
Do you know why?
What is it? What's the reason?
Soo Ho.
I only found out this morning.
Don't be too shocked.
They are...
mother and child.
He's her son.
What was that? What did you just say?
Father. What are you doing here?
Nam Joon is Ae Ra's son?
That's impossible.
How could he be her son?
Is that true?
Is Nam Joon really her son?
I heard her say it.
Mother said she'd take Aura Group from Grandfather...
and give it to her son, Nam Joon.
And to tie all loose ends before the shareholders meeting.
It's true.
Sir.
Are you sure?
Aren't you lying again?
When I heard what they said, my heart raced,
and I couldn't believe what I had heard.
So I checked her room...
and saw the DNA test result.
And?
And what?
It's what I said.
It said they were mother and child.
I'm putting the rest of my life and Do Ri's life on the line...
by telling you all of this.
So you need to save me.
If Nam Joon or Mother...
find out I told you,
they'll kill me.
And...
once you're accepted as the eldest grandson,
don't ignore...
Do Ri and me, okay?
I can't believe anything that woman says.
Who knows? She may be lying and trying to evade danger.
What?
Do you suspect me?
What if I bring you proof?
Must I send you a picture to prove...
Grandmother and Grandfather are locked up to believe me?
- That's right. - Yes.
What took you so long?
Didn't you say you were taking No Ah to kindergarten?
Well, the thing is...
his homeroom teacher wanted to talk to me.
Do Ri has been very anxious lately.
Go upstairs.
Okay.
What is that?
They're the chairman's and Madam's medications.
I'll bring them in.
Grandmother, Grandfather,
I need to tell you something.
What?
I think they really are locked up in their room.
My gosh. How could they be so evil?
Soo Ho, ask if we can...
do a video chat with them as well.
Ask how they're doing and about their health.
A video chat?
Fine.
Grandfather, Soo Ho wants to do a video chat with you...
to make sure you're okay.
Mother.
What's wrong?
Esther must have been caught.
I heard her say "Mother" just before she hung up.
She couldn't do that simple thing?
What's wrong with her?
Do you think something happened to them?
I can't just sit around.
I need to go and save them.
You should stay right here.
We can't risk you getting caught.
Okay, Soo Ho.
I'll give the Chief of Police a call.
I'll be right back.
